I bought a 2TB My Passport (not originally formatted for Mac) that I have been using to back up Time Machine on my iMac. I need to use it to back up my Dell laptop as well but it doesn’t show up when I connect it. Is there a way to do one of the following two things (preferably the first):
1-(re)format it so that it is compatible with the PC as well as with the iMac
2-(re)format it so that it is just compatible with the PC
Any wisdom and guidance would be greatly appreciated.

If you reformat to NTFS there are some utilities for Mac that will make the drive usable check this link http://community.wdc.com/t5/WD-Portable-Drives/unwritable-drive/td-p/435872 see post 6
